SleepUp: Digital Insomnia Treatment in the UAE

Are you struggling with insomnia or poor sleep quality?

Sleep quality is essential for overall health and well-being. It affects our mood, energy levels, cognitive function, and even our physical health. Poor sleep can lead to:

Increased risk of chronic diseases: Including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and obesity.
Impaired immune function: Making you more susceptible to illness.
Difficulty concentrating and learning: Affecting your work, school, and relationships.
Mood disorders: Such as depression and anxiety.
Increased risk of accidents: Due to fatigue and decreased alertness.

SleepUp is an app-based programme of cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), offered in the UAE through Al Thiqa Pharmacy. It combines a daily sleep diary, personalised guidance, relaxation audio and remote check-ins with sleep specialists.

How SleepUp Works

SleepUp is a digital insomnia treatment based on cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I). Most sleep guidelines recommend CBT-I as the first treatment for long-term insomnia. Instead of relying only on sleeping pills, it helps you change the habits and thoughts that keep you awake at night.

You log your sleep in the app each morning, and SleepUp builds a personalised sleep plan from your diary. As your sleep improves, the plan adjusts. Short guided lessons teach you how sleep works and how to relax before bed, and progress reports show how your sleep is changing week by week. SleepUp is available in the UAE through Al Thiqa Pharmacy.

Sleep diary with personalised guidelines
Self-guided, step-by-step CBT-I sessions
Meditations, sleep tips and ambient sounds
Progress reports, with optional wearable tracking

Who Is SleepUp For?

SleepUp is for adults who have trouble falling asleep, wake up during the night, or wake too early and feel tired during the day. If you take sleeping medicines, keep taking them as prescribed and talk to your doctor or pharmacist before making any changes. If you snore loudly or stop breathing during sleep, speak to a doctor first; you can book a free teleconsultation.
